BIGSdb v1.52.1 has been released. This adds 2 new plugins for LIN code visualisation - LINtree (@giphy-ip.bsky.social) and LINvis. See github.com/kjolley/BIGS... for release notes. BIGSdb powers all the databases at @pubmlst.org and BIGSdb Pasteur.
Tree drawn within the iTOL interface generated by LINtree. The tree is annotated with LIN codes and clonal complexes in different colours.LINvis displays datasets of LIN codes as a series of hierarchical packed circles.
